ODE T O ART

Elegance underlines every endeavour of Molteni & C and this year is no exception. The brand’s installation was envisaged as an art collector’s home, filled with artwork sitting alongside its equally collectible furniture pieces. The sophisticated scenography of creative director Vincent Van Duysen was the perfect foil for pieces old and new, which include the screw-free Woody chair—a debut collaboration with designer Francesco Meda—as well as an extension to Ron Gilad’s successful Teorema collection. Molteni & C also reissued Gio Ponti’s D.859.1 table, which can seat up to 10 diners, in its original finish of solid ash with bronze ferrules. It is also available in darker toned wood and smaller dimensions. molteni.it
